An automated urinary output monitoring system includes a urine collection assembly, a scale, and a pump. The urine collection assembly includes a urinary catheter coupled to a first drainage tube. The interim container coupled to the first drainage tube and a second drainage coupled to a final container. The scale measures the weight of urine collected in the final container and a display can depict the volume of urine collected in the final container. A vacuum pump can be coupled with the final container to draw urine from the interim container into the final container, and an air vent can isolate the patient from the vacuum within the final container. The system can be configured to wirelessly transmit urine volume data to an external computing device. A gyroscope can be coupled with the scale to determine the orientation of the scale.
